Appendix:Poison Type

The type is one of the 18 Pokémon elemental types. Before the addition of Fairy-type, it is only super effective against Grass-type Pokémon, while being resisted or ineffective against several types, so the main usage of Poison-type moves is actually for nasty effects, especially poison and bad poison, while Poison-type Pokémon are immune to these two status ailments. Grounded Poison-type Pokémon can also remove Toxic Spikes from the field if they are switched in. However, as Poison-type attacks are now also super effective against the newly-added Fairy-type Pokémon, these attacks are becoming more popular in battles.
